Just because you can doesn't mean you should! I'm so tired of--of everyone suddenly forgetting who people are and how much they matter as soon as we find out they killed someone!
No, you don't! Because this place messed with your head and convinced you that you needed to do it! That doesn't count! I don't know why nobody else gets that!
[AUGH HE'S SO DISTRESSED ITS A GOOD THINK HE'S WORKED UP SO HIS TSUN CAN'T KICK IN]
Don't you understand, Mabel!? I was never real to begin with! And even if I was, my tree is gone, it's dead! I don't have any connection to the forest anymore, I'm nothing! I'm just a shadow! You'd be better off just forgetting about me, seriously!!
If you're not real, then neither am I! And neither is anyone else here! Because I know we weren't all just hallucinating an imaginary friend together!!
I don't care if you're part of some computer code, or whatever happened to your tree--all I know is, you're here, you're one of my bestest friends ever, and you don't deserve this!
And I started the apocalypse! So what?! I don't care, Tsuki, and I'm not letting you chase me away when you need someone in your corner more than ever!
I didn't mean to! It was an accident, I--ugh! Whatever! [ she punches him lightly in the shoulder ] That's not the point! What I mean is, just because you might've done some bad things doesn't mean I don't still care about you! Cuz I know who you are deep down, and I like that guy, no matter what!
I could have been lying to you this whole time. Maybe I actually still do hate all humans and want them all to die. [The use of "still" implying he one time felt that way for real.]
Nuh-uh! You think this is any different than you getting mad at me over using my no-sadness power? You're trying to do the same thing right now! Well, I'm not falling for it! I'm gonna care--and even if you did make me hate you somehow, I'd still care! Cuz you'll still have been one of my best friends since we showed up here!
... The first time I died I tried to tell my brother the same thing. We were always arguing, and unlike me, he remembered the whole time how our father died because he was protecting me. He should have resented me, should be glad to have me gone. But do you know what he said?

Idiot! I can take a few hits!? Especially after what happened! Fuck, because I waited so long, we didn't even find out who killed Leo!?
And besides, you're stuck here with those people! Don't go alienating yourself on my account?

You don't know that! I killed a lot of humans before I came here, if anything you should be scared of me!
